Basic Crepe Recipe

★Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

1. Cream the Butter and Sugar:

• In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and 1/2 cup powdered sugar until light and fluffy. This usually takes about 3-4 minutes.

1. Add Vanilla:

• Mix in the vanilla extract until well combined.

1. Combine Dry Ingredients:

• In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually add this to the butter mixture, mixing just until combined.

1. Add Pecans:

• Stir in the finely chopped pecans until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

1. Shape the Cookies:

• Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet about 1 inch apart.

1. Bake:

• Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the bottoms are lightly golden. The tops of the cookies should not brown.

1. First Coating:

• Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then roll each warm cookie in powdered sugar. Place them on a wire rack to cool completely.

1. Second Coating:

• Once the cookies are completely cooled, roll them in powdered sugar again to ensure they are fully coated.

1. Serve:
   • Enjoy your Buttery Pecan Snowball Cookies with a cup of tea or coffee!

Enjoy!
